Abstract
An apparatus in one example includes a compliant component for supporting an electrical interface component that serves to electrically and mechanically couple a die with a separate layer. In one example, the compliant component, upon relative movement between the die and the separate layer, serves to promote a decrease in stress in one or more of the die and the separate layer. The apparatus in another example includes a compliant component for supporting an electrical interface component that serves to create an electrical connection between a die and a separate layer. The compliant component, upon relative movement between the die and the separate layer, serves to promote maintenance of the electrical connection.
